So many ftp requets in /var/log/messages !!!
Hello All,I always see so many ftp requests in my logs.There is no anonymous ftp enabled on server.The strange thing is that they are all come from localhost 127.0.0.1.
I think there is some provision so that if I add some lines in /etc/named.conf file I can block it.or I am not sure someone is port scanning my server or what are they exactly..
Here are few lines I see:
Jul 11 04:14:43 server proftpd[1902]: server.xxx.com (localhost[127.0.0.1]) - FTP no transfer timeout, disconnected
Jul 11 04:14:44 server proftpd[1911]: server.xxx.com (localhost[127.0.0.1]) - FTP no transfer timeout, disconnected
Jul 11 04:14:45 server proftpd[1902]: server.xxx.com (localhost[127.0.0.1]) - FTP session closed.
Jul 11 04:14:45 server proftpd[1911]: server.xxx.com (localhost[127.0.0.1]) - FTP session closed.
